About:
Datasette is a tool for exploring and publishing data. It allows users to create interactive, filterable web interfaces from SQLite databases or other data sources with zero configuration. Its main value is enabling quick data analysis and sharing without writing backend code.
Key Features:
  • Instant web UI for SQL databases
  • One-click publishing to the cloud
  • Plugin ecosystem for extended functionality
  • CSV/JSON import and export
  • Faceted browsing and filtering
Use Cases:
  • Exploring and analyzing datasets quickly

  • DBeaver – Desktop SQL client; not web-based or designed for publishing data
